6. You will hear of wars and rumors of wars. See that you aren’t troubled, for all this must happen, but the end is not yet.
7. For nation will rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom; and there will be famines, plagues, and earthquakes in various places.
8. But all these things are the beginning of birth pains.
9. Then they will deliver you up to oppression, and will kill you. You will be hated by all of the nations for my name’s sake.
